Lottie Cole’s solo exhibition explores themes of time and personal experience in the artist’s 30 watercolor and oil paintings. Drawing on her own experiences, including motherhood and personal life transitions, Cole reflects on change and fleeting moments of existence, creating a kind of visual “scrapbook” of thoughts that are meant to prompt a deep emotional response from viewers.
